…
After discussing, the Kusanagi was given to Blood Romance, the Yasanaki no Magatama to Feng Qiuhuang such that she could establish her country, and the final Yaya no Kagami was left for Ouyang Shuo.
As their compensation, Fallen Leaf Alliance and Snow-War Rose Mercenary Group got four more platinum items. Ouyang Shuo and Feng Qiuhuang did not want any equipment, as they had their eyes on a special item.
Teleportation Talisman: after use, can establish a teleportation formation in a target city.
There was coincidentally two talismans, one for each of them. Feng Qiuhuang naturally chose to use it on Hokkaido to build a stable overseas base.
What about Ouyang Shuo?
Picking up the teleportation formation, his eyes showed that he was deep in thought.
After splitting the spoils, the hundreds of thousands of adventure gamemode players started to teleport away. Blood Romance, Xie Siyun, and the others all waved goodbye to Ouyang Shuo whilst Feng Qiuhuang headed for Hokkaido.
The busy Edo instantly became cold.
Based on the plan, Ouyang Shuo was originally supposed to teleport to Seoul and chair the post war plans of Korea. However, after getting the talisman, he suddenly changed his mind.
For the next few days, Ouyang Shuo stayed in Edo. Even when things happened in Dali, he did not return.
During that time, Baiqi led the troops and smoothly took down Zhenla, representing that the country war goals of Great Xia had been reached. They not only cleaned out the hidden cancers but also used their chance to expand their land, earning a bountiful harvest.
Weirdly, despite that being the case, Ouyang Shuo did not show any intention of returning.
…
Moving the time back to two days ago, imperial city Dali.
After learning that Duan Zhengchun sent ambassadors to Great Xia with the intention of yielding, player Duan Hong could stand it anymore. Wasn’t it his family’s goal to finally take control of Dali?
If Duan Zhengchun gave up, how could they continue to play?
Seeing that he could not stop Duan Zhengchun, Duan Hong could only take the risky route. He chose to lead a coup to seize control of Dali before the dust settled.
The problem was that the Dali Guards only listened to Duan Zhengchun alone. It was as difficult as climbing the heavens for Duan Hong to stage a coup. Luckily, he had entered the palace for many years and had some achievements. Of the eunuchs, palace maids, and maid servants, many were bought over by him, which was why he was able to get so much information.
To stage a coup, Duan Hong could only borrow the strength of the players.
Helplessly, the Xiao Alliance ended up facing total defeat when they tried to interfere in the war between Great Xia and the Yanhuang Alliance. As a result, the Xiao family was chased out and the Fallen Leaf Alliance took over, causing Duan Hong to lose an ally.
Luckily, there was still Blood Sword.
Speaking of this assassin association, they had some connections with Ouyang Shuo. During the second system auction, they were hired by Chun Shenjun to try to kill Ouyang Shuo on the commerce street of Jingdu.
Since then, Ouyang Shuo had used the Rattlesnake Mercenary guild to try to find the base of Blood Sword to destroy them. Luckily for Blood Sword, they knew their position and showed their friendliness to Ouyang Shuo, which was why he let them off.
On the other hand, the Rattlesnake Mercenary guild was absorbed by Ouyang Shuo and formed into the Black Snake Guards.
Three years had passed since then, and the name of Blood Sword had become really famous amongst players, having a few huge cases.
…
6th month, 24th night, the night before Ouyang Shuo split the spoils of war.
Duan Hong used a lot of money to hide ten top Blood Sword assassins to disguise as eunuchs to enter the Dali palace and assassinate Duan Zhengchun.
One had to say that Blood Sword was really bold, even daring to kill an emperor. As it was unexpected and Duan Zhengchun was not prepared, they actually succeeded.
That night, Duan Zhengchun was slain in his sleep.
The moment the news spread out, the entirety of Dali was covered with sadness. Duan Zhengchun was an emperor loved by the people. Although the country was in tough shape, he never stopped caring for them.
The Imperial Court was in chaos too.
Based on the system, prince Duan Yu should take over. But At this very moment, Duan Hong stepped up to challenge him, and he even pushed the blame of the assassination onto Duan Yu.
Many ministers were bought over by Duan Hong, so they stepped up to speak for him, saying that he was talented and more suitable for taking over. Naturally, there were people who supported Duan Yu, especially those who appeared along with Duan Zhengchun.
“Who is Duan Hong? A weird player with an uncertain past, what right does he have to take over?” Both sides debated. They nearly even fought in the court.
When the guards saw that, they could only remain neutral. The entire Dali city was instantly in chaos. Without the guards, Duan Yu faced a tough situation and was helpless.
The next afternoon, after the elites of Fallen Leaf Alliance received their treasures, they returned to Dali.
When guild leader Fallen Dust got the news, although he did not know the small details, he realized that this was a great chance to help Great Xia take down Dali.
Ouyang Shuo had told them about his unhappiness with Duan Hong long ago.
If he was appointed, the outcome would be catastrophic. Fallen Dust was really decisive, immediately contacting Duan Yu. He said that he would help Duan Yu stabilize the city and help him ascend.
When Duan Yu got the letter, he naturally agreed.
With the support of the Fallen Leaf Alliance, Duan Yu used his identity as the prince to stabilize the country. He did not mention the ascension. Instead, he just said to the officials, “My father’s body is not buried, and I do not dare to crave the throne. I’ll use my identity as prince to investigate his assassination. Before this matter is clear, no one is to talk about the ascension.”
His move of taking a step back to take three steps forward immediately broke the tempo of Duan Hong. The reason Duan Yu gave was right and unfaultable. Duan Hong did not dare retort. If he did, he would be unfilial.
A prince stabilizing the country was normal, and even those who supported Duan Hong could not oppose.
The even more amazing part was that Duan Yu giving a ‘I will not rest until I find out the truth attitude.’ It washed off all the suspicion of him being the mastermind.
This made his position in the court a lot more stable, and even the guards started to lean toward him.
The moment they found any clues that pointed to Duan Hong, not only him, but the entire Duan Hong family would be in deep trouble.
The Dali situation would welcome a 180 degree change.
Duan Zhengchun evaluating Duan Hong as someone who had ambitions beyond his ability was absolutely true. Since he was ready to stage a coup, he should have killed Duan Yu too and removed all threats.
Furthermore, his intel work was atrocious. He did not care about Fallen leaf Alliance and allowed them to control Dali, causing him to lose on all ends.
It was really a case of ‘unable to achieve anything but good at spoiling things.’
…
Just as Fallen Leaf Alliance returned to Dali, the ambassador sent by Duan Zhengchun had arrived in Consonance City.
When Bai Hua heard about this, she hurriedly met them and immediately sent an envoy to the Capital City. At the same time, she sent a letter to Ouyang Shuo.
When Ouyang Shuo got the report, he ordered the 1st legion of the Eagle Legion Corps led by Cao Chun to teleport to Consonance City and move toward Dali.
He noticed that a great opportunity had arrived.
Under Ouyang Shuo’s control, the Fallen Leaf Alliance, the army, the Cabinet, and the Shanhai Guards all acted with the goal of taking down Dali.
Since Ouyang Shuo had personally taken charge, the destruction of the Duan Hong family was going to happen soon.
Under the investigation of the Shanhai Guards, the assassins were Blood Sword. Ouyang Shuo had the contact information of their leader and wrote a letter to ask about the matter.
Based on the rules, assassin organizations like Blood Sword could not reveal their hirers.
But who was Ouyang Shuo?
This Lord that could make the wilderness tremble under his foot. This matter also directly involved Great Xia’s interests, so how would Blood Sword dare to hide anything?
If they acted wrongly, they would be destroyed.
When the Blood Sword leader heard that Duan Zhengchun was actually going to yield to Great Xia, he actually wanted to rip Duan Hong to shreds, “This matter involves Great Xia, how can we interfere in it?”
If he knew that this matter was so complicated, he would not have accepted the job at all.
Immediately, he dealt with the person who was in charge of the deal and sent all the relevant information to Ouyang Shuo.
